Genie Energy Announces Second Quarter 2024 Results

Newark, NJ, Aug. 06, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Genie Energy, Ltd. (NYSE: GNE), a leading retail energy and renewable energy solutions provider, today announced results for the second quarter of 2024. 

Michael Stein, chief executive officer of Genie Energy, commented: 

“Our solid second quarter results reflect the investments in meter and RCE growth we made in the first half of last year, combined with a stable, normalized retail energy environment. We also delivered a solid performance at Genie Renewables, where Diversegy and our operational solar farms helped drive 7% revenue growth and over 700 basis points of gross margin expansion.

“Our strong performance over the first half of 2024 puts us on track to achieve our full year guidance of $40 to $50 million in consolidated Adjusted EBITDA. In the second quarter, we also improved our ability to fund growth and capital return initiatives by increasing our net cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities by nearly $16 million, even while in investing in our business, paying out our quarterly dividend and repurchasing $2.6 million of our common stock.”

Segment Highlights

Genie Retail Energy (GRE)

GRE’s second quarter revenue decreased 3.4% to $86.7 million from $89.7 million last year. Income from operations decreased 20.7% to $14.6 million from $18.4 million, and Adjusted EBITDA decreased 20.7% to $14.9 million from $18.8 million driven by a reduction in gross margins on electricity sales from the exceptionally high levels attained in the year ago quarter. Aggregate electricity units sold remained relatively consistent versus last year, as an increase in consumption per meter substantially offset a decrease in electricity meters served.

2024 Commentary

Stein continued: “Our solid performance in the first half of 2024 puts us on track to achieve our new, consolidated Adjusted EBITDA baseline of $40 – $50 million annually, representing a meaningful increase from the $25 – $30 million range we were targeting just a few years ago. 

“In our solar portfolio, we expect to continue to build out our two New York community solar projects for the rest of the year. We have also advanced two projects, comprising 10MW of potential production, to the permitting stage and are identifying new opportunities to expand our pipeline. Also within GREW, we expect that Diversegy will report another year of strong double-digit growth.”

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures for the Second Quarter of 2024

In addition to disclosing financial results that are determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (GAAP), Genie Energy disclosed Adjusted EBITDA on a consolidated basis and for GRE and disclosed Non-GAAP Net Income Attributable to Genie Energy Ltd. Common Stockholders (Non-GAAP Net Income and Non-GAAP earnings per share (Non-GAAP EPS). Adjusted EBITDA, Non-GAAP Net Income and Non-GAAP EPS are non-GAAP financial measures.

Generally, a non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of a company’s performance, financial position, or cash flows that either excludes or includes amounts that are not normally excluded or included in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP.

Genie’s measure of consolidated Adjusted EBITDA starts with income from operations and adds back depreciation, amortization, and stock-based compensation and deducts impairment of assets and equity in the net loss of equity method investees, net.

Genie’s measure of Non-GAAP Net Income starts with net income attributable to Genie Energy Ltd. Common Stockholders in accordance with GAAP and adds captive insurance liability and the tax effect of this adjustment. These additions are non-cash and/or non-routine items in the relevant periods.

Adjusted EBITDA, Non-GAAP Net Income and Non-GAAP EPS should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for, or superior to, revenue, gross profit, income from operations, cash flow from operating activities, net income, basic and diluted earnings per share or other measures of liquidity and financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. In addition, Genie’s measurement of Adjusted EBITDA, Non-GAAP Net Income and Non-GAAP EPS may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

Management believes that Genie’s measure of Adjusted EBITDA, Non-GAAP Net Income and Non-GAAP EPS provide useful information to both management and investors by excluding certain expenses that may not be indicative of Genie’s or GRE’s core operating results. Management uses Adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP Net Income and Non-GAAP EPS, among other measures, as relevant indicators of core operational strengths in its financial and operational decision-making.

Management also uses Adjusted EBITDA, Non-GAAP Net Income and Non-GAAP EPS to evaluate operating performance in relation to Genie’s competitors. Disclosure of these non-GAAP financial measures may be useful to investors in evaluating performance and allows for greater transparency to the underlying supplemental information used by management in its financial and operational decision-making. In addition, Genie Energy has historically reported Adjusted EBITDA and believes it is commonly used by readers of financial information in assessing performance. Therefore, the inclusion of comparative numbers provides consistency in financial reporting at this time.

Management refers to Adjusted EBITDA, Non-GAAP Net Income and Non-GAAP EPS as well as the GAAP measures revenue, gross profit, and income from operations, as well as net income, on a consolidated level to facilitate internal and external comparisons to Genie’s historical operating results, in making operating decisions, for budget and planning purposes, and to form the basis upon which management is compensated.

Although depreciation and amortization are considered operating costs under GAAP, they primarily represent the non-cash current period allocation of costs associated with long-lived assets acquired or constructed in prior periods. Genie’s operating results exclusive of depreciation and amortization are therefore useful indicators of its current performance.

Stock-based compensation recognized by Genie Energy and other companies may not be comparable because of the various valuation methodologies, subjective assumptions and the variety of types of awards that are permitted under GAAP. Stock-based compensation is excluded from Genie’s calculation of Adjusted EBITDA because management believes this allows investors to make more meaningful comparisons of the operating results of Genie’s core business with the results of other companies. However, stock-based compensation will continue to be a significant expense for Genie Energy for the foreseeable future and an important part of employees’ compensation that impacts their performance. 

Impairment of assets is a component of income (loss) from operations that is excluded from the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA. The impairment of assets is primarily dictated by events and circumstances outside the control of management that trigger an impairment analysis. While there may be similar charges in other periods, the nature and magnitude of these charges can fluctuate markedly and do not reflect the performance of Genie’s continuing operations. 

Captive insurance liability is a non-cash charge incurred by Genie’s insurance operations. While there may be related charges in other periods, the magnitude of these changes can fluctuate markedly and do not reflect the performance of Genie’s continuing operations. Captive insurance losses are excluded from Genie’s calculation of Adjusted EBITDA, Non-GAAP Net Income and Non-GAAP EPS because management believes this allows investors to make more meaningful comparisons of the operating results of Genie’s core business with the results of other companies. 

Following are the reconciliations of Adjusted EBITDA, Non-GAAP Net Income and Non-GAAP EPS on a consolidated basis to its most directly comparable GAAP measure. Adjusted EBITDA is reconciled to income from operations for Genie Energy on a consolidated basis as well as for GRE.
